When did you start your website and why?
I started work on my website in draft copy in the autumn of 2006. As the Relocation to Spain business I was about to embark on would be relying on 95% Internet based clients it was the obvious starting point.
Please give us a short summary of your website, business model, etc
Our website business was and still is primarily based on helping people who think they would like to come and live in Spain. They might not know where they want to live, so we give them an idea what it is like to live in Spain and introduce them to the Cadiz province. This is where we live and the area we cover. Our clients at the moment are English speaking, as we build our business we hope to offer other languages. For those who want to invest or buy a second or holidy home we offer the same profesional service. We also offer a property management team to look after clients properties.
